You can also download this widget for use on your blog or Web site 1/4/09 For those searching for older earthquake news back into December, I've got them all here. 2) I want to point you to two other things. 1), I wrote an essay pertaining to the earthquake craze. 2), the activist group I co-founded, Buffalo Allies of Bozeman, is joining Buffalo Field Campaign for a rally and march in Helena this Mon. for the bison. I hope that Montanans will consider showing up. If you need a ride, we are car pooling from Bozeman at 7 AM. Please let me know. This will probably cause a late update to the paper on Mon.; however, it will also produce pictures, video, and a report soon after. 3) Back from Yellowstone--wonderful skiing.

(by The Guignard Family)--not true that the only way to enter Yellowstone in winter is with a guide; people forget that the North Entrance remains open year round to automobile traffic; there are also other trail access points on the edges of the park to snowshoers and skiers. 1/4/09 Kicked out of Yellowstone (by Wendy)--she's kidding about that 1/4/09 Just asking! (by John Shuey)--has some religious questions at the end regarding the volcano; don't get me started on teleology--it never settles much of anything; theists see it one way and atheists the other but simply looking at the world's events won't settle the issue of God one way or the other 1/4/09 Beware, earthquakes!

(by Joseph Walther American Chronicle) 1/3/09 People are funny ...

(by Grandiose Verbosity)--alarmists have a tendency to try to tell you they aren't alarmists; here is a case in point--and as for a lack of new information in mainstream and other media, this person hasn't been reading the news stories that you can find here. I've rarely been flooded by more articles on a story so relatively underwhelming. Much more major stories on what's happening in Yellowstone often receive scant attention, sometimes none at all even by local media. 1/2/09 A literal shift in Yellowstone: The caldera (by Skyeweriter) 1/2/09 The Yellowstone caldera--is it time? (by Mother Jones EagleRockTalks) 1/2/09 Evacuation warning!--Yellowstone National Park (by Calicok9)--this idiot is crying "fire" in a theater; no one is crying "evacuate" except this numbskull (joke or not, these kinds of posts are drawing large numbers of readers, and I think the intention here is to get clicks for Google ads)--as I've mentioned before, we're going cross country skiing in the park tomorrow with hardly a care in the world ... anyhow, the real source for this stupidity seems to be here. 1/2/09 Pack a pic-a-nic basket (by Old Fart) 1/2/09 Yellowstone caldera resources (by Greg Laden) 1/1/09 Yellowstone doom: Imagine better this new year (by 1/1/09 Meeting people (by Exploring Orthodoxy)--an Australian Orthodox Christian shares thoughts on meeting people on an adventure to Yellowstone 1/1/09 What happens if the supervolcano under Yellowstone erupts?

Or Paris (by Garrison Keillor in Minneapolis Star Tribune)--even Garrison Keillor has something to say about this! Crazy; I think this was the most popular day this "newspaper" has ever had, and it's not even peak tourist season, or heck, fire season.
